Over And Done With (Nicky Campbell BBC Radio Session, 6 January 1989)

This is the story of our first teacher
Shetland made her jumpers
And the devil made her features
Threw up her hands when my mum said our names
Embroidered all her stories with slanderous claims
But it’s over and done with, it’s over and done with
It’s over and done with, it’s over and done with
It’s over and done with, it’s over, it’s over
It’s over and done with, baby here, let me hear ye
This is the story of losing my virginity
I held my breath and the fey held a trinity
People, I’m making no claims to no mystery
But sometimes it feel like
My sex life’s all history
It’s over and done with, it’s over and done with
It’s over and done with, it’s over and done with
It’s over and done with, it’s over, it’s over
It’s over and done with, yeah, yeah
I’m not saying these events didn’t
Touch our lives in any way
But, ah, they didn’t make the impression
That some people say
This is the story of watching a man dying
The subject’s unpopular
But I don’t feel like lying
When I think of it now I acted like a sinner
I just washed my hands
And I went for my dinner
That’s it, you washed your hands and you walked off?
Yeah
It’s over and done with, it’s over and done with
It’s over and done with, it’s over and done with
It’s over and done with, it’s over, it’s over
It’s over and done with, yeah, yeah
It’s over, it’s over, it’s over and done with
It’s over, it’s over, it’s over and done with
It’s over, it’s over…
